Chapter 4- Decision Decided
"H-Horo?" Yoh asked nervously. "W-What are you doing?"
"Sh..." Horo gently place a finger on Yoh's lips. "Like you would say... Just go with it." With that, Horo pressed his lips on Yoh's, whose eyes widened.
A shadow no far away turned away and walked off, fist clenching. "I'll get you for that Horo. I'll get for if it's the last thing I do." He muttered angrily. "I'll get you for kissing my Yoh."
Yoh sat there, wide eyed and numb. Had Horo just kissed him? Yoh pinched himself to make sure he was awake. There was pain when he pinched himself so he was awake. This isn't a dream... He stared at Horo, dumbstruck and frozen; still trying to process what had just happened into his mind. Horo just calmly stared back into Yoh's chocolate brown eyes. The bell suddenly rang, making Yoh jump.
"Umm... G-Gotta errr go." Yoh said nervously as he got up and backed away. "S-See you l-later Horo." With the, her bolted out of there.
Yoh took deep breaths as he stood next to his locker. This was just too much to process in. Too much to take in. Ren wanted to take him to the prom, Horo just kissed him and Anna is going nuts and is forcing him to go to prom with her... What next? Someone taps him on the shoulder and asks if he wants to go to the prom with him? There was a tap on him shoulder and Yoh jumped with a squeaky yelp.
"Dam Yoh. What's wrong with you?" Hao laughed.
"H-Hao! Don't ever scare my like that again!" Yoh yelled, patting his beating heart. Hao gave Yoh a strange look.
"You always know if I am behind you or not. What's wrong with you?" He asked Yoh who slowly loosened up.
"N-Nothing." He muttered.
"Ok, now I know something is up." Hao said with a sigh. "I can always tell if something is bothering you or not Yoh. Call it Twins intuition or something but something is bothering you, isn't it? You can't even sense that I was behind you."
"No one can. You always walk softly so no one can hear you." Yoh muttered as he slowly turned to open his locker. Hao chuckled.
"But you always knew somehow." He told his twin. "Remember that time when I got so mad at Otou-San I ran away? It was getting late and you were worried so you went to find me and found me in the park?"
"Just a lucky guess." Yoh mumbled, clicking open his locker.
"Yes, but the park was 3 miles away from home Yoh." Hao informed him. "You didn't even bother to check the park that was close to our house. You just walked those miles and found me. Walking ever so slowly might I add." Yoh grinned.
"See how much I care? And it would be nice for a change that you care about me." He told Hao who smirked.
"I do care." He told him.
"If you really care, then you will leave me alone and let me sleep longer in the morning." Yoh told him and closed his locker. Hao laughed.
"If you get into trouble, it won't be my problem." He said with a shrug.
"Deal." Yoh grinned and walked with his brother to their next class.
"By the way Yoh... You never answered my question." Hao said with a smirk. Yoh tensed. "Please don't ask me to go to prom with you!" Yoh said in a small squeaky voice.
"Huh? What are you talking about?" Hao looked at Yoh and laughed. "First of all, I am not gay and second of all, Mari is my date. Or don't you remember?" Yoh laughed nervously.
"I-I know." He said with a nervous smile. Hao gave him another strange look before replying.
"Why are you so tense about prom?"
"N-No reason." Yoh told him, trying to sound calm.
"Yah, like I'm going to fall for that. Spit it out Yoh." Hao commanded. Yoh sighed and told him everything. There was no keeping from Hao. He'd find out sooner or later.
"Why that..." Hao muttered. Yoh smiled. Hao does care about him! "Smart ass. Good for Horo." Yoh's mouth hung and fell to the ground.
"ANIKI! You are supposed to say something that will make me feel better!" He yelled. Hao laughed.
"Just kidding. Eesh... Calm down." Hao shook his head. "Well who do you like then?"
"I AM NOT GAY!" Yoh yelled at Hao who laughed again. "If I am to go to prom, I want to go with a girl. And not Anna!" Yoh looked around to make sure Anna was no where in site. She wasn't and Yoh sighed.
"I know but I mean, who do you like?" Hao asked again. "As in... A little more then a friend, or out of all your friends."
"Hmm..." Yoh thought about it but couldn't find the answer.
"Sleep on it Otouto." Hao said as he took a seat next to him. Yoh smiled and nodded, putting his head down and taking yet another nap.
Tamao walked over to her locker and opened it, replacing a few books. When she closed her locker, she heard a whimper and a sob. She turned around to see Pirika in tears.
"P-Pirika?" She looked at her friend with a concerned look. "A-Are you ok?" Pirika shook her head and whispered her to follow her. Tamao nodded and followed Pirika into the girl's bathroom.
"Pirika, what happened?" Tamao asked once they were inside.
"M-M-Member that I-I wanted to a-ask Ren to the prom? "Pirika asked through her tears. Tamao had never seen Pirika stutter before so this must have been very bad.
"S-So what happened?" Tamao asked. Pirika drew a quivering breath before she continued.
"H-He said no." She told him quietly. "I asked him why not and he just told me to back off. We had another argument and he looked as if he wanted to kill me."
"Oh Pirika... I am so sorry." Tamao said softly as she gave her a hug.
"N-No, no. It's not your fault." Pirika said with another sob.
"So... I guess we are both dateless huh?" Tamao asked, trying to lighten up the mood. Pirika sniffed and then smiled.
"Y-Yah. But that's not going to stop us from going to the prom right?" Pirika asked with a little bit more confidence.
"That's the sprite. Now let go out there and umm... Show them what we got?" Tamao asked, unsure if that made any sense at all. Pirika laughed and wiped her tears away.
"Thanks Tam." She said giving Tamao a hug.
Yoh slumped around the hall slowly, not wanting to go to class. Hao asked if he wanted him to join him... Mostly because he didn't want to go to class but Yoh said no and that he wanted some time alone. He sighed once more and walked around, with nothing to do or think about. Well nothing to think about was definitely not the word. With A LOT to think about was more like it. He sat down on the grass and sighed, leaning back and taking yet again another nap. What else was there to do to keep away all the thoughts? He didn't sleep that long until someone woke him up.
"Oh... D-Did I wake you?" Yoh opened his eyes and saw Tamao standing there with a worried expression on her face. Yoh smiled.
"Nah, not really." He told her as she took a seat next to him. "Why are you out here?"
"It's quiet. I can get some good reading time and some good peace and quiet as well." Tamao told him. Yoh smiled and nodded.
"Yah..." He muttered and then sighed. "Can I tell you something Tamao?" Tamao nodded. "It's more about prom." Yoh told her all about Ren and Horo... And about their kiss. Tamao's eyes widened and she felt herself faint.
"I-I see..." She said quietly.
"Yah... I don't know what to do." Yoh said quietly.
"That's something new. You always know what to do Yoh." Tamao told him. Yoh laughed lazily.
"I know. What a change..." He said with a grin.
"Well... What would prom be like without a jealous prom queen right?" She asked. Yoh laughed.
"True..." He muttered and turned to her. "What about you? Have you asked anyone to go with you get Tamao?"
"N-No... Not really." She said quietly.
"Don't worry Tam. There are many other fishes in the sea." Yoh grinned at her. Tamao smiled.
"I guess..." She mumbled.
"Tell you what. Since we are both dateless, let's go together." He suggested. Tamao's eyes widened.
"W-What?" She took a minute or two to process what he had just said.
"I said why don't we go together?" Yoh repeated. "Since we are both dateless. We shouldn't let that stop us form prom night. It's like our best moment of our life."
"But I thought you said that you didn't want to go." Tamao asked.
"I didn't but I don't like to see you worried over a date for prom. So what do you say? Wanna go with me?" He asked with a smile. Tamao blushed and nodded.
"Thanks Yoh." She said quietly.
"No problem Tam. Besides, its nothing compared to all those times you covered for me in class." Yoh laughed.
"Yoh..." Yoh sighed and turned to face Anna. It was now or never...
"H-Hey Anna." He said with a nervous smile.
"Well?" She asked impatiently.
"Well?" Yoh asked, careful not to tick her off that much.
"Prom is tomorrow Yoh and you haven't asked me to go yet. What are you waiting on?" Anna asked angrily. "Next year?"
"I-Iie Anna... Errr, I... I kinda already got my date." He told her.
"Oh?" Anna folded her arms. "You did, did you?" Yoh nodded. "And who might that be?"
"Don't worry about it Anna." Yoh smiled. "There are other fishes in the sea."
"Yes but I don't want any other fish. I want you!" Anna yelled. "You are going to the prom with me wither you want to or not!"
"B-But Anna! I already got a date for the prom!" Yoh whined.
"Well too bad." Anna snapped.
"But she is going to be waiting for me and everything!" Yoh whined, hoping that Anna would let him off the hook. No such luck...
"Well she is going to keep on waiting because you are going to the prom with me, wither you want to or not." Anna told him sternly.
"No he isn't." The turned to see Ren standing there, a stern look on his face.
"Go away Tao. This is none of your business." Anna snapped at him.
"I beg to differ." Ren told her calmly. "You see, you are not the only one who wants Yoh."
"Too bad. He's mine." Anna glared at the Chinese boy, only to get a glare back. Tao Ren... He was the first to stand up to her besides Hao... And he was proud to have that reputation.
"I believe it's not up to you to decide that." He told her with a smirk.
"That I agree." They turned to see Horo standing there. "It's Yoh decision."
"No it isn't. He is going with me and that is that." Anna yelled.
"You are no longer his fiancée Anna. You have no right to boss him around anyway. Fiancée or not." Ren told her, folding her arms. Anna glared at him with full power.
"How dare you say that?" She growled angrily.
"Oh I dare." Ren told her with a smirk.
"H-Hey guys. C-Come on. Stop fighting." Yoh said, trying to calm them down.
"Stay out of this!" Anna yelled at him.
"Stop bossing him around!" Ren yelled. This lead to another argument and Yoh having a headache.
"SHUT UP!" Yoh yelled, silencing them. "I have chosen who I want to go to the prom with and I am going with her. No one else." He told them. "The person I chosen is not you or Horo, Ren. And it isn't you either Anna. Now stop fighting already. It's just prom for god sakes." With that, Yoh walked off, trying to calm himself from his outburst. How long he had practice that speech...
Anna glared at the Ainu and Chinese boy. "This isn't over, you know." The boys glared back.
"You got that right." Horo muttered.
"Bring it on." Ren challenged. They all turned and left with one thought in their mind. Yoh will be mine.
Yay! Yoh made his choice! He is going to Tamao! God, I made Anna sound like a bitch! Well... I never did like her that much... She was way too bossy... And I hardly mention anyone else in the story! Especially my great Hao-Sama! And Jeanne seems to be forgotten too! But anyway, bring in the weapons and the blood for the next chapter! Next chapter is Prom Night and let the murder begin! Muhahahaha. Yoh will have a Prom night he won't ever forget.
